Innovation is leading the way but intimacy remains essential. On this episode of Balance Boldly, host Dr. Naketa Ren Thigpen explores the true cost of ambition in today’s fast-changing world. As Dr. Thigpen says, “The world rewards motion. But the overachievers I work with are tired of spinning.”
This conversation explains why ambition that costs your peace or your people is simply too expensive. From optimizing relationships to building strong relationship infrastructure, this episode is for founders and leaders who are done pretending. Balance Boldly exists because success without self is a lie. These are real conversations about creating lives and businesses that energize you instead of draining you.
